Idioms(1),第3页,颜色,红色(red)，在中国文化中，常与喜庆、欢乐事联络在一起或象征革命和共产主义等。如“披红挂彩，红喜事，开门红，大红人，红军，红色政权”等。英语中red也用于喜庆场所，如a red letter day，指所期盼或值得纪念日子，所以日历上也用红色标注节假日。但在部分句子表示中，red并不总与欢乐、喜庆联络在一起。,第4页,黑色(black)，在英汉语言中都有否定、反面含义。如blacklist(黑名单)，black-market(黑市)，black-hearted(黑心)，blackmail(敲诈)。但有趣是在英语中，“to run in the black”却指在经营中赢利。,第5页,白色(white)，在中西文化中都象征着纯洁、纯真，所以新娘都穿着白色婚礼服。英语中有“a white lie”指无恶意谎言或善意谎言。汉语中有清白无辜，清白做人；在西方文化中有White Christmas(有雪圣诞)，Green Christmas(无雪圣诞)，a white-collar job(收入地位高工作)，a white hope(有可能成功或成为有才能人)。但白色在以下表示中却另有其意，如a white elephant(昂贵而无用东西)，the white feather(怯懦、胆小)，a white night(不眠之夜)等，均含有贬义之味；在汉语中，白色往往与不幸、恐怖、丧事联络在一起，如“白事，白区，白色恐怖”以及白色丧服。,第6页,黄色(yellow)，在中国文化中，黄色有“污浊、淫秽”之意，其次在传统文化中又象征“王权、王室、皇家”。西方文化中，“yellow”并无此意。例如yellow pages(黄页)指电话簿或其它登记各种机构、商店、团体等册子。Yellow journalism指以耸人听闻方式报道新闻消息等,第7页,蓝色(blue)，在英美文化中常意味着“忧郁、伤感”。比如：in a blue mood，having the blues均指“忧伤”，a blue fit指极其愤恨；但a blue film中却并非伤感影片，而相当于汉语中“黄色影片”。蓝色在汉语中象征着温和、平静、清新、静谧，并无伤感之意。另外，在英语中，blue-collar jobs指体力劳动者；而在blue blood(高贵血统)和bluebook(相关贵人名人书籍)中blue又都有高贵、权贵之意。,第8页,1.Black and blue,字面意思：黑色和蓝色。,E.g.,He slipped down the stairs one night.The next day he was black and blue.,Explanation,Be covered
